I think I have a common cold virus. Slight aches. Stuffy nose. Mucus.

Mild cough.

Any advice for remedies? I get paid tonight so tomorrow I will buy lots of fruit.

I might get turmeric and black pepper pills again. Curcumin and piperine is good for ones immune system.

I feel so poorly. 😔

I recommend chicken noodle soup and vitamin c or echinacea if you can afford it. Echinacea has high vitamin c so you don’t need both.

I hope you feel better soon!

I second vitamin C or something high in it. I’m pretty sure there are studies proving it can shorten the lenght of the flu.
